Dell PowerVault DL2000 - Manual (Page 6)

Example of a comprehensive solution: When sufficient knowledge of the remote
clients and applications is built into the replication stream, then comprehensive
management of centralized data is possible. CommVault Simpana software tracks
replication to individual clients and applications, and includes these systems and
data in standard backup and recovery reports generated at the central location.
CommVault Simpana’s unified console provides a single view of all systems, and
enables IT administrators and operators to work with replicated data using the
same procedures and policies that are applied to other data located at the
datacenter.
Reporting, management control and the use of common backup policies are some
of the key capabilities built into the CommVault Simpana solution to provide a
comprehensive solution for data centralization and management.

More Reliable Data Protection and Recovery; Lower Cost Data Preservation
When comprehensive management tools are in use, then IT administrators can be
assured of comprehensive protection and adherence to policies for data centralized
from remote site locations. The use of datacenter infrastructure, which often
includes more modern disk‐based approaches to data management than what is
found in remote site locations, improves the reliability and performance of data
management tasks. Performing these tasks on a secondary copy of the data
removed from the remote site also speeds performance of systems at the remote
site which are no longer weighted down by intrusive backup operations.
Data managed using a tiered combination of disk and tape, or into an infrastructure
from which tape has been eliminated completely, also lowers the cost of data
preservation.
Enabling IT administrators and operators whom have been trained for data
management to manage remote data is also a benefit. Organizations no longer
need to wonder if backup tasks have been completed, tape cartridges rotated, or
data moved to offsite locations. They can also benefit from the faster recovery that
trained administrators and operators can deliver when they work with
comprehensive remote management tools, such as what CommVault Simpana
software delivers.
